Recently, my husband was arrested. On the way to the Miller County jail, the officer driving the car, hit a deer. My husband was not in a seat belt, but was handcuffed behind his back. When the impact occured, he flew forward, hitting his head on what seperates the front from the back. He had a large knot on his head. However, when he arrived at the jail, they did not have him checked for any injuries. He is now suffering from a stiff neck and headaches. Is there anything we can do legally about this?

You may be able to file a claim for damages. I would highly recommend that you contact an experienced personal injury attorney to determine whether you have a personal injury claim. It sounds like your husband may have a claim against the driver of the vehicle, the driver's employer and/or the insurance carrier. Please feel free to give me a call if you would like to discuss further.
